Changed shank length

There are several threads on this issue. I went from a 10" shank to a 14" shank a few months ago. First trip with the new set up was over 1000 miles. I could detect absolutely no difference in towing or tracking. I didn't scale the axles, but using the measurement method, I required no changes to my WDH setup. Several posts advising of all the problems I would have before I did it. None of these posters said anything after I reported my results. It sure is nice to be able to lower my tailgate. Side note, there were many posts telling me why I didn't need to be able to lower my tailgate.

Same here, I put a 3 inch longer shank on mine and have zero problems. The tracking thing - what is that supposed to mean? The trailer wheels take a slightly different path when going around a corner? Whoop-de-do!
